Cookies and other technologies

As common on many other company websites, TVB Lesachtal also uses so-called "cookies" and other technologies to gain a better insight into which areas on our websites are especially popular and how our visitors move around on the website and how much time they spend in the different areas. In addition, TVB Lesachtal uses also other technologies to ensure that our online advertisement is effective and actually makes customers aware of our products and services. TVB Lesachtal uses cookies and other technologies to analyse data traffic on our website in order to improve its design and functionality even further and to evaluate the efficiency of the communication with our customers.

In some of our email messages, TVB Lesachtal uses a so-called "click-through URL" which is linked to our website through content. If you click such an URL address, you pass through our webserver before you get to the actual target website. TVB Lesachtal tracks these "click-through" data to establish which interests in specific topics exist and to measure the efficiency of the communication with our customers. If you want to avoid that such data is collected, simply do not click any text or graphic links in emails.

In addition, TVB Lesachtal uses so-called "pixel tags" (small image files) which provide information as to which areas of our websites have been visited by customers or which measure how effective search operations of customers on our website have been.

Using pixel tags enables TVB Lesachtal also to send email messages in a format readable by the customer. In addition, we can also check whether emails have been opened to ensure that TVB Lesachtal only sends messages which are of real interest to our customers.
